I say 15-1 is doubtful. Let's say the Cowboys beat the Commanders at home, Jets, Greenbay, Detroit, Philly, and Carolina. Then we have a 13-1 Cowboy team rolling into Washington for a final game that means nothing for the team. Playoff bye and homefield advantage in hand, the Cowboys will have nothing to play for accept pride and to keep the rust off. Any whisper of an injuring will ensure that a Cowboy player will sit it out. Washington on the other hand might be playing for their playoff lives. There are a lot of "upsets" in the last week and if the Cowboys are in this situation, I would put my money on Washington.

Can we go 15-1? Absolutely. Looking at each individual matchup, you could even say we SHOULD go 15-1. That having been said, we won't. We'll come out flat against one of the teams remaining on the schedule and lose a game we should win, and/or we'll rest players during the last game against Washington if we have homefield wrapped up. Regardless how it happens, I think we'll lose one or two more. We shouldn't, but probably will. I'd take 14-2 and homefield advantage in a heartbeat. Who wouldn't? I don't see us losing one of the next 3 games because they're all at home, but Green Bay could beat us. I don't think they will because a lot will be riding on that game and it'll be hyped by the media. The team will be ready for that one and if we lose, it'll simply be because Green Bay played a great game. The games I figure we might lose are at Detroit because they might be playing for their playoff lives and at Washington simply because it's a rivalry game and we'll be resting players. I don't see us losing at Carolina. They suck.

Oh yea, forgot one. The Philly game at home could be tricky. They'll be out for revenge for the smackdown we laid on them, but I don't think they have enought to beat us at home. Not this year.

however we will probably slip up on one of them. It's only human nature that we lose a game when we have everything rapped up.

Agreed...........if we sit players, we probably lose.

The important thing is homefield, after that I really dont care about the final record. I would much rather be 13-3 with homefield than 14-2 without it.

At the beginning of the season, I thought we might go 10-6, at best 11-5 and here we are talking about possibility of going 15-1, how time have changed. Having said that, I think we have a very good chance of going 13-3, at best 14-2. I think we lose at least one game, perhaps two.

I was about to make one of my ticked-off chip on my shoulder posts, annoyed at all the we probably wont go 15-1 posts.

And then it HIT ME! OMG were talking about going 15-1/14-2!

That is unfriggin believable!

Who's with me, can you believe this?

We should all be some HAPPY MO FO's if you ask me.

Right now I'm lovin life and every one of you SOB's...
wait scratch that... I mean lucky SOB's.

With all that said, I think and hope GB pushes us to at least 14-1. We need it to stay sharp.
